Peter Hickman, BBC Worldwide Digital Entertainment Children’s Producer said: “Hey Duggee is an amazing show and it’s a privilege to be able to work with both [Hey Duggee creator] Studio AKA and the game’s developer Scary Beasties. One million downloads is a huge milestone for us and I’m pleased to say that we have brand new Hey Duggee apps in the pipeline to take us to the next million! Ah Woof.”
